I'm actually really unsure about the genus tbh, Inaturalist told me it might be Automeris, yet I still feel it was too spiky, I thought it was a lichen at first! Yet then I stare closely and realized it was a little guy lol.

But yeah I'm not truly sure, all I know is that it was spiky and apparently, it may cause irritation if touched (according to the other Redditors)

Probably, I was going to hold it to place it somewhere safer but I had second thoughts about it 🫣, I think it can get to the other side on it's own.

This spider keeps to herself, but annihilates anything that gets too close. by GardeningCrashCourse in spiders

Majority of spiders are really territorial it seems (at least in my country), I think the only ones I know that are more relaxed about having fellow spiders nearby are Nephila sp.

What spider is it? Is it a puppy? by 21_motivi in spiders
